As CSK hit winning runs to secure their second win of the season, a visibly dejected Rohit Sharma covered his face with the team's cap as he returned back to the MI dugout with a disappointing look on his face. The video of the same has gone viral on internet. 

After the match got over, Rohit Sharma said the senior players, including himself, need to step up. 

"The senior guys need to step up starting with me. We know the nature of IPL, when the tournament starts we need to get some momentum and when you don't it is tough. Just two games and all is not lost still. If you win, you can win a few on the trot and when you lose it is hard to come out of that momentum. Hopefully, things start to change," he said.

Mumbai's top-order was simply outdone by CSK's bowling attack. One highlight of the high-octane CSK vs MI match was the return of Ajinka Rahane who announced that he isn't finished yet by scoring the fastest fifty in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 so far. The win comes as a big boost to CSK's morale and their Net Run Rate (NRR).
